Beam Me Up, God...

Adios, Scotty (I knew wearing the red shirt would catch up with him eventually)

Best Sulu impersonation: "Captain, I do not believe Scotty will beam us up anymore. He is...indisposed".

I never cared for ST, but Scottie was cool. So that's why I started a thread mocking the man on the occasion of his passing....god, I am a bastard

it was the pneumonia that killed richard whitely you know on the good side-he got extra points for a 9 letter word and using all the vowels

Mourning, but not surprised- he wos' an engineer, notta' bloody mirr-a-cul workah, y'know?

At least he'll have his own Captain's seat now, high in the sky and he won't have to worry about Kirk's bum anymore (his final Scotty scene in ST: Generations).

Shame that the franchise has also died this year as well, difference is that 'ST: Enterprise' deserved it, whereas Mr. Doohan will be painfully missed.

RIP.

thats the funniest thing i've read today...on another point, all the scottish papers we're in mourning for james doohan/scotty which i found amusing with him being canadian, also they plan to put some plauge up in the town where scotty 'came from' linlithgow....touching
